Total amount paid by Rita is $98.79

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Given sales tax = 11% and cost of jeans = $89
Step 2: Calculate amount of sales tax = 11% of 89 = 11/100 × 89 = $9.79
Step 3: Calculate the total amount

Total Amount = 89 + 9.79 = $98.79

Solve the following equations <br> 5^2x-2(5^x)-15=0

castortr0y [4]

Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

${5}^{2x} - 2( {5}^{x} ) - 15 = 0$

$( {5}^{x} {)}^{2} - 2 \times {5}^{x} - 15 = 0$
